It was a good tour. The group was very large (20+) and hard to hear at times. Unfortunately there was no opportunity to ask questions either. However the content was really interesting and the guide was great. We were taken to beautiful parts of Gion and were lucky enough to see a few Geisha’s.

Walk started on time. Guide Chako spoke excellent English, she waited for everyone to gather at each spot before she started her explanation and stories so we could all hear and there was no need to push and shove. Chako also brought along old photos as visual aids. Overall a pleasant experience even though we didn’t get to see any Maiko.

The night walk in Gion is the best choice to make.It was like going back to the past and walking through the movie set of”Memoirs of a geisha”. Our guide was very helpful,informative with the history of Gion and the Geisha district. She made sure the walk was not boring. It was a memorable walk one should book when in Kyoto.
